Today’s inspiration board is a celebration of all things Summer! Created with a floral filled wedding at the beach in mind, and in a soft pastel palette including a delicious and oh-so-pretty peach; it is full of romance, but with a calm, carefree and breezy vibe perfect for its beach setting…..

There’s no place for a Summer wedding quite like the beach, and I do think this palette with its almost ethereal dusky blues suits such a setting perfectly! However if you’re not a sand between her toes kind of girl (or if you had your heart set on heels!)  this whole look would work just as well in a country garden or elegant historic house, or even a more industrial space like a loft. Much as I love the idea of outdoor celebrations in Summer, they’re not for everyone.

Whatever location or venue you decide on though, the key to this look is keeping it relaxed, verging on rustic, but with an unmistakably old world elegance. Think simple yet cohesive styling and decor, with a mix of natural textures that blends into your chosen setting – a rustic wood arch or chuppah, soft drapes, linen on tables (and your groom – to keep him nice and cool) and lots of soft colored glass. Allowing the setting to shine won’t fail to wow your guests and create a timeless take on a beach wedding timeless.

So dreamy, don’t you think? If its early days in your wedding planning process and you want to see more wedding colours and inspiration boards perfect for Summer look no further because you will find lots in CVB’s archives!
